Hi, i have to know if updating my ROM (1.43.206.4) to 1.72.206.3 from HTC website can affect the phone being unlocked. I would also like to know how to upgrade my Manila from 2.5.1920 to a better one that supports Sense in landscape.
The cell on restart reads O2, is there anyway to get rid of that screen????

Hi, i have to know if updating my ROM (1.43.206.4) to 1.72.206.3 from HTC website can affect the phone being unlocked.
If you mean unlock from; unlock your device from your operator, than the answer will be NO!

Your Manila version will be upgraded at the same time you upgrade your Rom if it is build in! not every Rom Upgrade have a new Manila version, but the majority have. Way not take a cooked Rom thy have the latest manila version?

@ Kurt Willems
Thanks for your answer but when i said unlocked, i meant that my cell is already "unlocked" right now (using another network in India). What i need to know is whether the ROM upgrade will "Lock" it back to O2 since the upgrade that i will use reads:
ROM Version:1.72.206.3 for O2 only
NOTE: This update is for O2 UK devices currently on ROM version 1.43.206.4 only. Users with devices on ROM version 1.48.405.2 please click here (on the official HTC site)
So will this upgrade "LOCK" my phone back to O2???
and I guess i should ask a complete question.............please tell me which ROM to go for apart from the one mentioned above............i dont wanna brick my HD2
The complete specs are as follows:
OS Version 5.2.21864 (21864.5.0.81)
Manila Version 2.5.19202525.0
ROM Version 1.43.206.4 (70315) WWE
ROM Date 11/06/09
Radio Version 2.04.50.22_2
Protocol Version 15.26.50.07U
Okay, I sea more clearly now what you mean.
unfortunately I don't have a idea if it will lock again your device. In Belgium we don't have locked device so I don't have experience on this.
And I will not give you a wrong information.
Sorry!
no it will not re lock your device. Once unlocked, its permanent.
yes you can change the o2 splash screen. flash a different rom (some cooked roms dont have them, some do, all oficial ones do, flash a t mo one, you get a tmo splash, flash a generic htc one, you get a htc splash) or you can make your own, see my sig and many threads like it.
@ Kurt Willems and Samsamuel...............thanks a lot. There is one more thing that i need to know; i read somewhere that a wrong radio can damage the cell bad........wanted to know if the following Update would work on My existing ROM:
RUU_Le2_UK_1.72.206.3_Radio_15.32.50.07U_2.07.51.22_2_Signed_LEO_Ship (this is the ROM update file)
Existing :
OS Version 5.2.21864 (21864.5.0.81)
Manila Version 2.5.19202525.0
ROM Version 1.43.206.4 (70315) WWE
ROM Date 11/06/09
Radio Version 2.04.50.22_2
Protocol Version 15.26.50.07U
your current version tells us that you do not have a 'tmous' hd2, so you do not need to worry about the radio bricking your phone. That only applies to tmous hd2s, you have a 'regular' hd2.

i have been search on here and on some other sites for some long time to find a way to back up my stock rom installed on my HTC HD2 ..... but everybody is talking about cooking rom and backing up contacts or so .....
is there any way to back up my stock rom from my HTC HD2 before doing anything to my phone??
i just wanna keep a back up of the original rom before doing anything .... can anybody help me?
just download it, a million times easier.
look here [REF]Leo Official ROMs
i downloaded this ver from HTC site but this is very old ver ....... i got 1.66.... i checked the difference between the ver i have now and this one on HTC site 1.48 there is too many fixes and updates in the ver i got not in the 1.48 .... so im looking for some way to backup the rom i have now so i keep the latest official rom

in your device check the software version and the radio version
and give it to me... i'll give you the link from where to download the same rom
rom version 1.66.415.4 (76641) WWE
radio version 2.07.51.22_2
there .....
its really strange that i cant find any of the great developers and programes on this site to help me in my problem
as it was stated in another threaduntil noe ther is no way to "extract" or "backup" an entire rom .
I perfectly see what you mean, its a problem for me too: i modded my 1.66 stock rom so heavily that it would take days to reconstruct my perfect running hd2 in case an update to new 3version stock or flash of cooked rom fails at all and/or dissatisfies me.
then i want to go back to the previous perfect state by just flashing my cutomized stock rom without any additional hazzle
Sashimi won't do this, no other app won't do this..........
Even Spb backup won't do this as I had to learn the hard way since reflashing seems to be not the same as just upgrading a rom .........
some things happen in the rom that we still do not fully understand ......
I have the same concern as winner1. I want try out some custome roms, but before that it would be nice to have some sort of backup of my stock rom.
troed mentioned there is no to "extract" or "backup" an entire rom. So there is the option of downloading a stock rom.
As a matter of fact I am a total noob and I have no idea on what i must to pay attention to. Could someone help me to find a download of my stock rom, please?
Despite there is no hardware-branding, I don't know if my rom is software-branded. It would be nice to have a branded rom if there was one.
I bought my HTC HD2 from the service provider Three in Austria in August this 2010.
Here are some additional information about my phone:
OS-Version: 5.2.21869 (21869.5.0.82) / WM 6.5 Pro
Manila-Version: 2.5.19211619.0

The fact that your rom version is 1.66 tells us that although the phone is on 3, the rom isn't rom locked, so you use default HTC roms, not branded roms. (Which would have a 1.7x version)
Unless i am mistaken, this means you need the 1.66 HTC GER stock rom, which (amazingly) can be found on teh HTC germany website under support, pick your phone, downloads, rom updates., or, as per post two of this thread, the official roms thread, first post, first link, 1.66 folder, and teh one you want is called
RUU_Leo_HTC_GER_1.66.407.1_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.0 7U_2.06.51.07_Ship.exe
If you download it from teh htc website, you can confirm its the correct one by using your serial number, because it wont let you download it if its not correct.
Hi, I am from India, just bought a new HTC HD2 and so far happy with it.
Haven't hacked/flashed any WM device before as never used one! Have some experience on hacking my PSP though So, thought of asking for some help from you experienced people
Well, here it goes:
Checked my device Software Information and it says:
_____________
OS version
5.2.21869 (21869.5.0.82)
Manila version
2.5.19211619.0
ROM version
1.48.720.2 (71294) WWE
ROM date
11/25/09
Radio version
2.05.51.05_2
Protocol version
15.28.50.07U
_____________
So, I assumed I have an old v1.48 ROM and checked HTC website, it says latest ROM is v1.66. Tried to download but says my device isn't supported and doesnt let me download. Checked through many threads and seen someone uploaded official ROMs on 4shared folder. Those seem to be upto v2.13 as well as v3.14.
So please let me know which is the latest version of Official ROM and which way do I update my HD2? Updating ROM will also update my Radio and Protocol and OS versions?? If possible, please link me
Also I would need some guidance on whether to install Android or try any custom ROM. Also, which is the best Custom ROM out there?? All I'd need is 1) Battery Life (Don't wanna sacrifice HTC Sense) 2) Image playback (As I'm a fashion photographer and need references for posing on location) 3) Facebook and bit of browsing and messaging.
Also, where to enter the registry tweaks?? How to open the registry editor??

3.14 is the latest, you can run android on this with no
other conditions like HSPL.
Updating to a Stock ROM will change your ROM and Radio only
updating to a custom ROM (with HSPL) will update only the ROM - most custom
ROMs dont include a Radio .nbh

with your conditions above, both Winmo (stock) and Android has its own advantages
and setbacks, but both are excellent when it comes to photography, you will
come to decide which is best for you only when you've tried both.

Had to flash back to the old and boring 1.66.707 with Radio version 2.06
Get issues with most of the custom roms as well. feel we ve the most deprived HD2

I've been trying to do the same. 405 gave me an invalid vendor ID and I got nowhere. Did you manage to get SPL3.03 to install by flashing 3.14.405? Which SPL did you use?

Although I hadn't planned on up-dating my ROM, if there is/was one available, I do have a couple of questions.
1) How can I determine the region for my HD2? I also think it's Southeast Asia, but I could be wrong.
2) What is the clear advantage of up-dating the ROM. My phone is working quite well, and doing pretty much what I want, so I would only up-date if there's a significant reason for doing so.
Here's my info:
HTC HD2
Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional
OS Version: 5.2.21869 (21869.5.0.82)
Manila Version: 2.5.19211619.0
ROM version: 1.48.707.2 (71294) WWE
ROM date: 11/09/09
ROM Region: South-East Asia (I'm guessing here)
Radio version: 2.05.51.05_2
Protocol version: 15.28.50.07U
Thanks,
Peter
your rom .707 means that it is a malaysian unit

Thanks for the info. How did you determine the region? Is there a place online where one can see a list of ROM numbers and in what region they apply?
Thanks,
Peter
Addendum: I think you may be wrong. I just went to HTC's Malaysia site and tried to download the ROM up-grade listed for the HD2, but it said, "Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device."
i think singapore and malaysia both have same units...the sea version..they have not released any rom updates there..so where were you trying to download from? ... also, kurt willems has posted it somewhere in his posts, the different roms region wise

As I said in my previous post, I tried to download the ROM up-grade from HTC's Malaysia site at the following link:
http://www.htc.com/sea/
If you go to ANY HTC site, click on "Select Country," and then click on Malaysia, you get the link above.
Now here's what's really weird (the RED part from another post of mine)...
Here are the details concerning my phone:
S/N: HT01XNW02546
Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional
OS Version: 5.2.21869 (21869.5.0.82)
Manila Version: 2.5.19211619.0
ROM version: 1.48.707.2 (71294) WWE
ROM date: 11/09/09
ROM Region: South-East Asia (I'm guessing here)
Radio version: 2.05.51.05_2
Protocol version: 15.28.50.07U
SPL: 2.08.HSPL (Old 1.42.0000)
I have tried virtually every HTC site online and only two of them allow me to download a ROM up-grade: The Hong Kong Traditional Chinese site, and the Hong Kong English site. However, and here's the hitch, both of the file names contain the letters CHT (not WWE) which, I believe, means Chinese. If I were to use this ROM, would my phone change from English to Chinese?
What can I do to up-grade. As you can see, my ROM is quite old. I'd really like to up-grade, but I don't want to brick my phone. It's working well right now, but if there are numerous improvements, perhaps up-grading would be a good idea.
Any thoughts, comments or suggestions?
Peter
Addendum: I see on page 1 of this thread that there are four possible ROMs that I could use (I think):
World Wide English (WWE) 3.14.405.2
Hong Kong: (HKSCL_WWE) 3.14.831.3
World Wide English (WWE) 1.66.405.2
South East Asia (Asian WWE) 1.66.707.1 (This one seems to match my S/N prefix)
What happens if I up-grade using any of the four above? Will some cause problems, will all work, will none work? Please help.
@ PeterHTC
Based on your information; (ROM version: 1.48.707.2)
You mention to have a x.XX.707.x ROM! (Aria Rom = South East Asia)
Now if you will try to install a other Rom aria version as the one you have fore the moment you need to install it over HSPL ore Goldcard.
But; HSPL and stock ROM 3.14 aren't compatible! So if you will install the latest stock ROM (3.14) you need to use GoldCard technique.
Install stock ROM 3.14 in combination with HSPL caused problems on limited Program Memory.
So use the GoldCard technique or wait fore a 3.14.707.x stock ROM.
and the rom update on the sea website is an old one for 1.66 version...the new 3.14 version is not posted on the sea website...just wait for it..it will come..........mail to the customer care at htc from the website...remind them .........it works
can anyone provide us with at least a leaked rom for asia-wwe?
ROM Released!
It has been released see htc SEA support site
I got my HD2 from amazon with a SEA-WWE rom but i flashed to the normal WWE rom its a bit better than the SEA versions so ill wait till they release a 3.14 WWE
i couldn't post the url cause of this

I wish I'd read Peter's post before I downloaded the ROM upgrade!
I bought my HD2 in New York last March. The OS, ROM, Manila, Radio and Protocols versions were identical to Peter's listed above.
I went to the Hong Kong-English section of the HTC site, where ROM Version 3.14.831.3 (Release Date: 2010-11-02) was available to download.
My S/N was accepted and I proceeded to download the ROM. The installation instructions were mostly in Chinese, but foolishly I did not suspect anything and persisted with the installation, using guesswork and intuition. Also (foolishly) I failed to notice that the actual ROM I downloaded was Version 3.14.832.3 (04666) CHT.
Now I am stuck with a Chinese language HD2 which is virtually impossible to use.
Can anyone help please?
Eamonn.
When I bought my HD2 - which is a 707 hardware. (Same deal, chinese mall in Toronto) it was in chinese, the girl changed it over to english for me and aside from the extra keyboard button that would kick it over into chinese from time to time, it was workable.
What I've done with mine, as I don't know chinese and gave up learning years ago, was install the latest Artemis ROM after goldcarding it. Instructions are on the thread. Goldcarding makes the hardware not check to see what region it is locked to while loading new firmware - so you can flash WWE or whatever you want to it.
Hi im a noobie (from Old XDA 2I) with a HTC HD2 (Original T Mobile ROM) so after a few months I thought I would try a New/Upgrade ROM saying I had played around with the old XDA quite a bit. So I downloaded RUU_Le2_UK_143.206.4_Radio_Signed_15.26.50.o7U_ 2.04.50.22_2.ship.exe ROM and also HardSPL_3 I successfully installed Hardspl_3 but when I try to Flash the O2 rom I get up to 80% and then have the error ERROR[302] : UPDATE ERROR
I have tried about 6 times to go through the recovery but I still get the same error
HELLLP PLEASE..

Have my HD2 now working after thinking I had bricked my New HD2. Thanks for all the help, by the way.
I downloaded a O2 Stock Rom and when flashing it reached 80% and died and would not flash at all and kept booting to the Tri colour Boot screen so I then downloaded a TMO stock rom and used that and its now OK ish.
I have a TMO unlocked HD2 using Winmo 6.5 with the O2 provider, So it still boots with the T Mobile screens and tries to use the TMO Walk and Web for internet connection. I manually input the O2 Settings into My ISP and I can get onto the net through this. Phone, Email and SMS work fine with O2
Some more new questions?
1) Can I not use a O2 Rom on the TMO unlocked HTC HD2 phone?.
2) Can I flash the HD2 with a Custom Rom
3) If I can What would the best stable rom to Flash with.....!!!!

1) if you used HSPL (normally yes) but way you will do it? I mean except some parameters its the same!?
2) Yes way not!?
3) Energy ROM ore Artemis ROM are very good.
Only problem is Artemis ROM use the latest stock ROM 3.14 (There isn't a 3.14 UK T-Mobile stock ROM available yet, so you need to use the Goldcard technique)
Ow, no matter witch custom ROM you choose, reed and follow the install instructions mention on there threads.

3) Energy ROM ore Artemis ROM are very good.
Only problem is Artemis ROM use the latest stock ROM 3.14 (There isn't a 3.14 UK T-Mobile stock ROM available yet, so you need to use the Goldcard technique)
Ow, no matter witch custom ROM you choose, reed and follow the install instructions mention on there threads.
EDIT; Way opening a second thread???

Yes you can, but why would you want to? HSPL the phone, then flash it it the HTC 1.66WWE ROM. This is basically the 1.72 ROM that the operators brought out, but without all the guff that the operators add in.
I have a 1.66WWE ROM with a T-Mobile UK HD2. Everything works as it should and it is stable.

2) Can I flash the HD2 with a Custom Rom
Click to expand...

Again, yes you can. But please read, and then reread, the chef's instructions. They will tell you if you if their ROM is suitable for your phone, if you need to HSPL (or Gold Card or SSPL) it and what Radio ROM is suitable for it.

The HTC 1.66WWE ROM is very stable for me, along with the 2.15 RADIO. As for custom ROMs, then go to the custom ROM section and have a good read.
Thanks Fed-UP..
This is all strange to me as I owned a XDA2I for about 6 years. Thanks to this site I could make that dance and had quite a few Progs working that a few people could not.
I even purchased a few spare or repair XDA's off EBay and had three working by mixing and matching
Miss it really. But out with the old.
But again thanks for all your help. Clearest concise reply I have had to-date.

Hello... I have an American HTC HD2 (T-Mobile only) and used it a bit then upgraded to WP7. But then I moved to another country and I couldn't use the sim cards on my locked WP7 phone. So I gave it to a specialist and told him to unlock it. When I got the phone back it was WP 6.5 and Im okay with that, but what Im not okay with is that Twitter(peep) says Im forbiden to enter the server,etc and the only solution is to update to the lastest version, so
If I update my unlocked US HTC HD2 will it get re-locked and If not, where can I update, because Im not sure to use the US T-mobile update or to use the UK HTC update ... Help me please.
My Software Info - so Im totally clear:
OS version:
5.2.21913 (21913.5.0.94)
Manilla ver:
2.5.20181527.0
ROM ver:
3.14.405.2 (04666) WWE
ROM Date:
09/29/10
Radio version:
2.15.50.14
Protocol version:
15.42.50.11U
also some Hardware Info, if necessary
RAM size:
578MB
Flash Memory Size:
1024MB
I give so much information because I want to be sure that I wont get my phone bricked or get it re-locked, because a new phone and/or re-unlocking isn't cheap
Any feedback will help!
Once unlocked it will always be unlocked,no matter what you do to it.
3.14 is already the latest version and you can ONLY use tmous roms. Just because the sim has been unlocked does not change that. Flash any non tmous stock rom and you will have a brick.
BUT, here comes the weird bit,,, that rom you have flashed (3.14.405) is the wwe rom, not the tmous rom, which I found a little unexpected, however my previous comment stands, you should stay away from stock roms that aren't tmous roms.
I would be tempted to go for a NRG WM6.5.3 ROM & if Twitter is still a problem you could try MoTweets ... NRG ROM is about the best HD2 WM6.5.3 experience available ...
